Is there REALLY evidence for microdosing psychedelics? @DavidErritzoe#BAP2023
As studies become more robust, there is weaker and weaker evidence- the strongest evidence is from non-controlled trials
➡️In fact, if you think your microdose is a placebo, it stops working! 🍄 🧠

“When the fun stops, stop” is the equivalent of saying “when you’ve smoked crack five times a day, stop”.’ Can't disagree with that. Excellent article re: gambling addiction & the work being done by @HBowdenJonesOBE@AMolodynski@srchamb & @ClareGerada. https://t.co/6Lqo1ZNC3A
As National Clinical Advisor on Gambling Harms to @NHSEngland I am deeply concerned at the idea of a gambling treatment provider giving awards to the gambling industry.
Who on earth set this up and why? Same as respiratory medicine giving tobacco companies awards….
A very productive meeting with insightful discussions!
Thanks to all our stakeholders who took the time to join us on Friday 🙌 🗨️💬✅
And of course, thank you to the team for their hard work! @srchamb, @drjmas, Amith_Anilkumar and Betul_Aslan
